Brian Williams likes big butts and he cannot lie!
The NBC Nightly News managing editor and anchor became the accidental star of another mashup music video Monday when Jimmy Fallon spliced together several clips of the TV journalist for The Tonight Show. This time, the late-night host did it to the tune of Sir Mix-a-Lot's hip-hop classic "Baby Got Back."
Meanwhile, Today's Kathie Lee Gifford, Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb provided additional vocals.
Thanks to Fallon's editing team, Williams has also "performed" Snoop Dogg's "Nuthin' But a 'G' Thang" and "Gin and Juice," Mark Wahlberg's "Good Vibrations," N.W.A.'s "Straight Outta Compton" and The Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight."
During an April appearance on The Tonight Show, Williams told Fallon that actor Cuba Gooding, Jr. once approached him at a New York Rangers game and told him, "You're a huge figure in the rap and hip-hop community." Williams also suggested a few ideas for future mashups—"some pre-hearing loss Foxy Brown" or "any [Ludacris]," before he impressively recited the latter's "Rollout (My Business)" lyrics.
